"Zhuqing, relax. It's nothing serious. The first time flying is always like this. You'll get used to it slowly."
"Mm…" Zhu Zhuqing slowly recovered. Being carried while flying did not feel as great as outsiders made it sound.
Half an hour later.
Chen Qingling finally saw the winding mountain range Zhuqing spoke of.
A dense and vibrant green forest appeared before her eyes. Qingling had an illusion of returning to the Star Dou Forest, and she couldn't help but feel sentimental.
After so many years, how was her father doing in the thatched hut?
Without her, he must be lonely, right?
In reality, after Qingling left, her father Chen Shengge lived even more freely and comfortably.
Truly a pair of carefree souls. As expected, people of one family always end up under the same roof.
"Qingling? Qingling? Qingling!!!"
"We're going to crash!" Zhu Zhuqing's cry pulled Chen Qingling back from her thoughts. Snapping into focus—
A giant towering tree appeared before her. She made a sharp turn and barely avoided it.
Perhaps Lady Luck favored her again—soon after entering the winding mountain range, Chen Qingling found a soul beast suitable for Zhuqing.
A 1,500-year-old Wind Spirit Cat.
Swift as wind, claws arriving first.
Chen Qingling casually blocked with the Radiant Butterfly Blade. "Little kitty, be good and come be Zhuqing's Soul Ring."
The Wind Spirit Cat didn't have high intelligence, but it could tell this wasn't good. It bared its fangs at Qingling, looking like it was about to pounce like a tiger.
Seeing this stupid soul beast, ignorant of heaven and earth, Qingling couldn't even muster the will to tease it.
She even worried—if Zhuqing absorbed a soul ring this dumb, would it affect her intelligence?
Of course, that was Qingling's nonsense thought.
Shaking her head to clear the distraction, she prepared to kill it—then remembered she couldn't kill it for Zhuqing.
So intimidation it was.
There were only the two of them here. No outsiders.
She instantly released the pressure of a Soul King. Soul rings rose under her feet—an unbelievable configuration.
Two purple, three black.
Feeling the terrifying pressure, the Wind Spirit Cat trembled violently, too scared to move.
Beside her, Zhu Zhuqing was stunned at Qingling's soul ring configuration.
"Qingling, your soul rings…"
"Uh… didn't I tell you?"
"Not that…" Zhu Zhuqing pointed at Qingling's first soul ring. "When I first met you, your first ring was still a hundred-year one!"
"Why is it a thousand-year purple ring now?"
As she finished speaking, an absurd idea popped into Zhu Zhuqing's mind.
Could it be—Qingling's first ring became thousand-year because of that mysterious, almighty father behind her?
After all, in Zhuqing's eyes, Qingling's father could do anything!
There was nothing he couldn't do!
Otherwise how could her first ring upgrade in age?
It must be his doing!
Zhuqing envied Qingling for having such a reliable and strong father.
Unlike her own father, who only forced unpleasant ideas on her and wanted her to obediently follow her fiancé Dai Mubai.
That was why she ran away from home—to escape his words.
After learning Dai Mubai's sins, her resolve strengthened—she would never be bound by a clan marriage!
Envy, envy, and more envy.
How she wished her father could truly think for his daughter like Qingling's did.
"Ah… well…"
"Zhuqing, you know my father can do anything. He gave me medicine that increases soul ring age." Qingling admitted openly.
"So nice…"
"Qingling, your soul ring setup is so absurd it hurts to look at."
"Since ancient times, only you could pull that off."
Qingling stuck her tongue out playfully. "Who knows? Maybe my dad is even more powerful than me."
"That's true."
With such a monstrous daughter, her father definitely wouldn't be ordinary.
"Zhuqing, now what you need most is your third ring. Kill it yourself."
"Okay." Zhu Zhuqing attached Netherworld Spirit Cat possession and pierced the Wind Spirit Cat in one strike.
After killing it, she sat cross-legged and began absorbing the thousand-year ring.
A moment later.
Soul power surged violently around Zhu Zhuqing.
Chen Qingling sensed it and truly felt happy for her.
"Congratulations, Zhuqing. Your soul power rose two levels."
"Only two levels. I'm a level 32 Soul Elder now, still worse than you—you're already a Soul King."
"Really, the gap between people is too big." Zhu Zhuqing joked.
"Mm… Since you've finished absorbing your third ring, I have another gift for you."
"Huh? Qingling, this… I feel bad. You've given me so much, I don't know how to repay you."
Zhu Zhuqing bit her lip. She felt she owed Qingling more and more. She might never repay it in this lifetime.
"Aiya, what relationship do we have? Talking like that makes it sound distant."
"But…"
"No buts."
Qingling's gift wasn't ordinary—it was immortal herb from the Ice-Fire Yin-Yang Well.
Since she gave it to Rongrong and Xiao Wu, Zhuqing must also get one.
Or rather—only those who met her standards received one.
Those three girls did, along with her two teachers, who refused because of age.
After consuming the immortal herb, Zhu Zhuqing's soul power would surely make a qualitative leap!
"Father, which immortal herb suits Zhuqing?" Qingling called inwardly.
Far away in the Star Dou Forest hut, Chen Shengge paused.
"Suitable for Zhu Zhuqing? Hmm…" He recalled the original plot's herbs for the Shrek Seven.
His eyes lit up. "Daughter, the one for Zhu Zhuqing is Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone."
"A pure white crystal-like flower, like a white lotus untouched by dust."
"There is a special method: eat only the petals, then suck the stamen, and use soul power to refine it."
Qingling memorized it. "Okay~ thank you Daddy~ Daddy is the best~"
Hearing her spoiled tone, Chen Shengge's calm heart rippled. He smiled and shook his head.
"This girl… she really hasn't changed at all." He looked at the blue sky.
Years of traveling didn't erase her naturally good nature.
Perhaps only someone like that could awaken the Radiant Goddess Butterfly.
However… there was one thing he couldn't understand.
By logic, a child's martial soul should relate to the parents!
He couldn't recall anyone in Douluo with the Radiant Goddess Butterfly!
He couldn't figure it out. Not at all.
So he stopped thinking. Anyway, this girl was raised by him—he could tell at a glance she was his.
